World-famous author, Darby Grace, didn’t just write a bestselling series, she built a franchise that landed her in the Hollywood spotlight with fame, fortune— and a bad case of writer’s block. Needing inspiration, she escapes to the quirky little town where it all began.
Pine Valley isn’t the only thing Darby left behind when her books became best-sellers and Hopper O’Reilly hasn’t forgotten being written off. Once upon a time, he thought they might share forever, but her story interrupted the happily ever after they had planned.
The longer she’s back the more Hopper uncovers the woman he remembers— and “The Great Darby Grace” finds her pulse racing fast for an old flame who ruffles her feathers... and steals her heart.
Rumor has it, this spunky second-chance love story just might have a happy ending...
